57% of your time is spent in meetings, writing emails, and chatting in the workplace. Ouch. wsj.com/articles/worke… via @WSJ

-But Majority Ignored Suggestions: it varies by agent, but on average, the agent only followed the recommendation from the generative AI 38% of the time

-Retention Benefit: employee retention improved for everybody with the additional augmented support. The turnover rate of employees with the generative AI support was 8.6% lower than those without it

Really interesting paper from @erikbryn @Danielle__Li @LindseyRRaymond on role of generative AI in a call center environment. Key findings: -Generative AI helped Underperformers: it improved productivity for new and under-performing employees, as expected nber.org/system/files/w…

I've talked a ton about how we will not know the ripple effects of hybrid work for years to come. One I didn't see coming was an increase in drinking during the work day. #xj4y7vzkg" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Interesting to see the increase in the number of companies moving to a 4-day work week. Will be powerful to see if this or a reduced hours across work days is more attractive to employees. @FastCompany fastcompany.com/90895278/want-…

Really interesting insight: majority of employees think AI will cause job losses but will not cause their job to be lost. pewresearch.org/internet/2023/…

Really smart. Not a 4 day work week, but 6 hour days instead. More and more research showing more hours does not guarantee better output. worklife.news/leadership/six…

The CHRO role has never been more important to organization success. Some thoughts from me in HR Daily Advisor. @Accenture @HRDailyAdvisor hrdailyadvisor.blr.com/2023/03/22/chr…

Nice message from a company to mandate that employees actually take their PTO -- forced vacation? axios.com/local/twin-cit…

More evidence on importance of building rest and recovery into work rather than after work. fastcompany.com/90810642/these…

Really interesting move by @shopify to give employees the gift of time by adjusting when people work. No meeting Wednesdays, no recurring meetings with more than 2 people, big meetings only on Thursday. Is this the future of work? @bizboyle @tia_silas bloomberg.com/news/newslette…

Leaders have to focus more on empathy to create an improved learning environment. ⁦@qz⁩ qz.com/3-ways-to-crea…

Really interesting trend from @explodingtopics showing how importance and attention to candidate care during the recruiting process has grown across the last 10 years.
